The popular Mansour Festival, organised by Bidaya, is set to return to Yas Island from 20–23 November at Gateway Park North, offering four days of family-friendly activities, interactive experiences, and live entertainment. The event brings the world of the well-known animated character Mansour into an immersive setting designed for visitors of all ages.
This year’s edition introduces a full programme of live shows, workshops, science demonstrations, themed zones, and outdoor activities. Families can expect hands-on creative experiences, an Age of AI Inflatable Park, arcade games, and a large inflatable area designed for children. Desert Riders will offer camel and horse rides for younger visitors, while themed worlds such as Mansour & Sara: World of Discovery, Dhabia’s World, and the Makers’ Workshops will provide interactive spaces to explore.
Presented and organised by Bidaya, the festival brings the characters and storytelling of the Mansour universe into a real-life environment. Each day will conclude with a drone show followed by a fireworks display. Food trucks curated under “Obaid’s Food Corner” will provide a range of food options throughout the event.
The festival will also feature a special world record attempt, giving attendees the opportunity to witness a milestone moment as part of the programme.
